When they did the B26 Invader it was something I thought I'd never see in my life time. Then HKM comes out with an A20 coplete with the stressed skin. I'm looking for them to also do that one in 1/48th scale. This B26 is just the icing on the cake! Revell did the PV-1, and I always wanted them to do the Hudson. So what's left to do before moving on to RAF twins? gary Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Geoff M Posted February 18, 2023 Share Posted February 18, 2023 Looking forward to this. And if they do the rest of the variants we will be supplied for years to come. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ChesshireCat Posted February 19, 2023 Share Posted February 19, 2023 well I'm going to order two of them. I'm kinda perplexed as to whether the B26b has the long or short wing, but I'll get by. Lets hope this kit has a pretty good bomb bay and detailed nose area. Think they'll sel a ton of them gary Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kurt H. Posted February 19, 2023 Share Posted February 19, 2023 Wow, It is nice to see a much sought after subject get a new, high quality kit! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Robertson Posted April 23, 2023 Share Posted April 23, 2023 Just because of its crooked gull winged leading edges, the Monogram will instantly look bizarre: They were straight as a ruler on all Marks. I don't even know what Monogram was thinking. Interestingly, the Monogram clear parts are outstanding in shape, so if ICM fumble theirs, there will be a way out.

ChesshireCat Posted April 23, 2023 Share Posted April 23, 2023 just slightly off topic, but still concerns the B26b. Did the RAF ever fly the B26b? gary Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Supersabre100 Posted September 23, 2023 Share Posted September 23, 2023 Anyone know if Flak Baits Invasion Stripes D Day 1944 consisted of 3 black stripes 3 white stripes or the standard 3 white stripes 2 black? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dave Williams Posted September 23, 2023 Share Posted September 23, 2023 The fuselage stripes were definitely 3 and 2, but haven’t seen a good contemporary shot of the wings. I’ve always seen the wing stripes represented as 3 and 3. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Falconxlvi Posted December 29, 2023 Share Posted December 29, 2023 Curious when this finally gets released. I guess not 2023 after all 😆 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Charlie D. Posted December 29, 2023 Share Posted December 29, 2023 Latest I heard was March 2024, but there’s a war on in their country so I’m not going to hold them to it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Robertson Posted February 25 Share Posted February 25 CADs were out, and it looks amazing, probably their best one yet. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

But you need to scratch the JM-1 style tail cone that didn't have any guns, just an observer position for the target sleeve. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
